Hey everyone and I’m back with another fun round trip for you guys. After turning in my gaming computer to the repair shop for diagnostic tests and stress tests and meeting with the Bridges to Work program, there was enough time for me to do a midday round trip on the (E) Train before celebrating Yom Kippur with family later in the evening. After the huge announcement that was released on Monday about the (F) and (M) Trains swapping their routes, I knew that I would have to do some stuff on the (E) Train before the swap would be implemented because this swap does affect (E) Train service come December 8. And on this ride, we were literally on cruise control through Queens and it was quite a fun journey. So yeah I hope you guys enjoy this one through Manhattan and Queens.
